In addition to official covers of HoneyWorks’ popular songs, such as “Good Morning Friday” and “Fan Service,” the group has also released numerous original songs, garnering over 30 million views on YouTube. One of her original songs, “I Won’t Forgive Your Oshi Hen Nante!”, was officially selected as one of TikTok’s “HOT SONGS IN JAPAN” (as of August 29, 2022).
